I am originally from South Carolina, but I have lived in Georgia for 28 years, which I consider my home state.  I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Science with my major in Early Childhood Education from Augusta State University in 2006,  and received my gifted endorsement in education in 2018.  

I live in Grovetown.  I am married to the sweetest man ever, Mr. Tommy.  I have 5 children and 4 grandchildren.  I love spending time with my family, planting flowers, gardening, bird watching, fishing, hunting, vacationing at the beach and mountains, and of course, TEACHING! 

 I have been teaching for 19 years, and teaching has always been a passion of mine.  Nothing feels more satisfying as a teacher than to see a child enjoy learning and how much they grow academically. Within my years of teaching, I have taught 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grades. This year, I am very excited to begin a new role as an EIP teacher.  My goal is to work with students  and develop relationships that inspire them to learn and grow.  I have been part of the Brookwood family for thirteen years.  Brookwood is my second home.
